One could probably simultaneously spoof ADS-B for added chaos.

Easily. I've heard that some systems are using trilateration to reject spoofed ADS-B but am not sure how widespread that is.

Trolling flightradar24 and like services would be easy.

That's certainly an interesting approach, but also spoofed by sending a adsb-spammer on a balloon. Then, start flooding adsb with 10-100 messages a second.

Wireless systems without AAA and encryption and signing are effectively fucked.
